Dead horn.

Another day, another dead horn.

Low horn has died on the f82. The car now sounds like a toy car.

About two weeks and the dealer is going to sort the horn and also fix those M badges in the seats that seem to do nothing at all, except crack.

Dealer wont change the badges to the revised black ones that don't crack so it looks like they'll most likely crack again in the future.

AUC warranty saves the day again!

Probably because the silver ones aren't wired up. They're just badges aren't they?
The black ones are wired, as they illuminate.

Silver ones illuminate too. I think the heat from the light inside cracks the finish on the silver ones, they're really poor compared to the new black ones.

No they do light up the same as the newer ones, they just dont seem to last as long.
